'STARTED' CORKSCREW
WILLOW
PIECES
Chinese
Willow
has
been
introduced
into
many
areas
as
an
ornamental
tree,
including
Australia,
Europe
and
North
America.
A
particularly
popular
cultivar
is
Salix
matsudana
'Tortuosa',
the
"Corkscrew
Willow"
(also
known
as
the
Hankow
Willow,
Curly
Willow
or
Globe
Willow),
in
which
the
branches
and
twigs
grow
in
a
spiral,
twisting
manner.
As
a
result
of
the
ornamental
shape
of
the
branches
and
twigs,
this
cultivar
is
commonly
used
as
a
bonsai
plant
and
for
floral
arrangements.
Trees
will
lose
their
leaves
in
winter.
Not
recommended
for
small
yards,
as
they
can
grow
quite
large
BUT
can
be
kept
in
large
pots
as
a
feature
&
easily
trimmed
for
the
smaller
yard
or
balcony!
